By ROSE L. THAYER | STARS AND STRIPES Published: April 23, 2021 AUSTIN, Texas Construction will begin next week at five Army bases to improve 12,000 existing on-base family residences and build about 1,200 new homes with $1.1 billion in private financing. The money speeds up plans to upgrade family housing with a focus on junior enlisted and noncommissioned officer housing at Fort Hood in Texas, Fort Campbell and Fort Knox in Kentucky, Fort Drum in New York, and Army housing in Oahu, Hawaii, said Phillip Carpenter, chief operating officer of Lendlease, the private company that manages housing at the bases. “We want to be able to build the new homes first, and then any families we need to move over into the new homes in order to demolish the old homes, we want to be able to afford them that opportunity,” he said.
